The shrimp question

Hm – the Caridina indeed like fish eggs ……………. But I have offspring, at least in my quindecim tank. I now decided to put C. simoni in each paro tank, because of the big advance of keeping the tank clean. Let’s wait and see.
By the way – I have already seen my nagyi male chasing away shrimp which come too close to the cave. We should bear in mind that guarding the cave is no self purpose ………..
But I removed all other inhabitants (snails, shrimp) of their tank some time ago because I wanted to be sure why they don’t have offspring …. Now that it’s clear that the nagyi parents themselves are the threat for their fry, I will put in shrimp again.
